GHG Footprints, LCA & CSRD Annual programme
Annual programme CSO Manager
As a manager, do you want to get to work on sustainability in your operations in concrete terms? The annual CSO Manager programme gives you the practical knowledge and skills to embed sustainability structurally
EnrolAbout the programme
Embedding sustainability structurally in your operations
You learn how to apply sustainable innovations, meet the latest statutory requirements for ESG reporting (such as CSRD) and how, as a manager, you effectively bring about sustainable change.
On completion you are able to achieve sustainable goals within your organisation, draw up accountability reports that comply with laws and regulations, and lead your organisation through the transition to future-proof operations.
Structure
A flexible set-up with three modules
The annual programme consists of three modules and an exam. Thanks to its flexible set-up, you can start at several moments each year: whenever a new module is offered. This means you can join at least three times a year.
Part of the registered programme
The only post-hbo registered CSO programme in the Netherlands
Together with the annual CSO Executive programme, the annual CSO Manager programme forms the registered Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) programme. This is the only post-hbo registered CSO programme in the Netherlands.
